Thanks for the heads up mate, they got offered to me cheap of an evo owning friend so I thought about them but if they are a bit cheese like I'll stay clear. Consider it your good deed of the day sir.

No worries mate. Like I said, no experience personally, but there was some negative feedback on here. If I can find it I'll link it for you.

Doesn't look like it'll be an easy search but scooby world do some in blue.

Found these on eBay which should be best fitting to your seats and styling etc http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-IMP...QAAOSwDk5UGtJp

Not sure they will do the racaro seats. As the air bags would be restricted. Search eBay as I have seen some black ones that do for the 330s racaro seats with air bags.

Sumo power have them. Check the sn trader for sale section.

Failing that save about 30squid and get one from Japan parts.

PROVA steering wheels are just about the same as Damd too.

Hopefully the pics won't show up the awful job i did but it should give you an idea of smoked overlays on a silver car

That looks a tidy job, in the photos at least, and I think the smoked work well on a silver motor. Did you not fancy the clear tail light first though to make it symmetrical?

Looks good although not sure if I prefer to the clear ones on a silver car. Agree, on most other colours the clears do not work. That's my own personal view - all very subjective I know.

Oh no. Why didn't you put a clear fog light in... for 70 pounds and a red bulb you'd have been sorted.

Any ideas if you could get the fog light bulb in chrome?

I'll be doing the indicator bulbs next to finish the look.
